Jeffrey K Luttrull M.D. is a consultant retina specialist and internationally recognized innovator in the treatment of retinal diseases. His contributions, including "high-density / low-intensity subthreshold diode microsecond pulsed laser" (SDM), are advancing the treatment and understanding of retinal disease. Dr Luttrull is the most published and most frequently cited author in the field of retinal laser treatment. Through his research, Dr. Luttrull has been a pioneer in early and preventive treatment of diabetic retinopathy and developer of first preventive treatments for age-related macular degeneration that reduce the risk of "wet" macular degeneration and slow progression of age-related geographic atrophy to reduce the risks of visual loss. This new approach to disease prevention is called "Vision Protection TherapyTM", working via therapeutic Immunoactivation - engaging the body's own immune system to safely and effectively reduce the risks of vision loss.
